The Instrument Of Government

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

The instrument of government is the prime political problem confronting human communities (The problem of the instrument of government entails questions of the following kind.

What form should the exercise of authority assume? How ought societies to organize themselves politically in the modern world?)

Parliaments

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Parliaments are the backbone of that conventional democracy prevailing in the world today.

Parliament is a misrepresentation of the people, and parliamentary systems are a false solution to the problem of democracy.

The Party

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

The party is:

a contemporary form of dictatorship
the modern instrument of dictatorial government

The party is the rule of a part over the whole.

As a party is not an individual, it creates a superficial democracy by establishing assemblies, committees, and propaganda through its members.

Class

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

The political class system is the same as a party, tribal, or sectarian system since a class dominates society in the same way that a party, tribe or sect would.

Plebiscites

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Plebiscites are a fraud against democracy.

Those who vote “yes” or “no” do not express their free will. Instead, they are silenced by the modern conception of democracy as they are not allowed to say more than “yes” or “no”.

The Law Of Society

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

It is invalid and undemocratic:

Who Supervises The Conduct Of Society?

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

The question arises: who has the right to supervise society, and to point out deviations that may occur from the laws of society? Democratically, no one group can claim this right on behalf of society. Therefore, society alone supervises itself.

The Economic Basis Of The Third Universal Theory

Part 2: The Solution of the Economic Problem: Socialism

Important historical developments contributing to the solution of the problem of work and wages – the relationship between producers and owners, workers and employers – have occurred in recent history.

Need, Housing, Income, Transportation, Land

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

The freedom of a human being is lacking if his or her needs are controlled by others, for need may lead to the enslavement of one person by another. Furthermore, exploitation is caused by need. Need is an intrinsic problem and conflict is initiated by the control of one’s needs by another.

Wages

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Working for wages is enslavement.

It is void of incentives because the producer is a wage-earner and not a partner.

Self-employed persons are devoted to their work because from it they satisfy their material needs. Likewise, those who work in a collective establishment are also devoted to their work because they are partners in it and they satisfy their material needs from the production.

Domestic Servants

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Domestic servants, paid or unpaid, are a type of modern slave.

Since the new socialist society is based on partnership and not on a wage system, natural socialist rules do not apply to domestic servants because they render services rather than production. Services have no tangible material product and cannot be divided into shares according to the natural socialist rule.

The Social Basis Of The Third Universal Theory

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

The social factor, the national factor, is the dynamic force of human history.

The social bond binds together human communities from the family through the tribe to the nation.

The Family

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

To the individual, the family is more important than the state. Mankind acknowledges the individual as a human being, and the individual acknowledges the family, which is his cradle, his origin, and his social umbrella. According to the law of nature, the human race is the individual and the family, but not the state. The human race has neither relations nor anything else to do with the state, which is an artificial political, economic, and sometimes military, system. The family is like a plant, with branches, stems, leaves and blossoms.

The Tribe

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

A tribe is a family which has grown as a result of procreation. It follows that a tribe is an enlarged family. Similarly, a nation is a tribe which has grown through procreation.

The Nation

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

The nation is the individual’s national political “umbrella”; it is wider than the social “umbrella” provided by the tribe to its members. Tribalism damages nationalism because tribal allegiance weakens national loyalty and flourishes at its expense. In the same way, loyalty to the family flourishes at the expense of tribal loyalty and weakens it. National loyalty is essential to the nation but, at the same time, it is a threat to humanity.

Woman

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Both man and woman are human beings. It follows that woman and man are equal as human beings.

Discrimination against woman by man is a flagrant act of oppression without justification.

Freedom Versus Dictatorship

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Freedom means that every human being gets proper education which qualifies him or her for the work which suits him or her.

Dictatorship means that human beings are taught that which is not suitable for them, and are forced to do unsuitable work.

Minorities

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

What is a minority? What are its rights and responsibilities? How can the problem of minorities be solved according to the solution to various human problems presented by The Third Universal Theory?

Education

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Education, or learning, is not necessarily that routinized curriculum and those classified subjects in textbooks which youths are forced to learn during specified hours while sitting in rows of desks.

Music And Art

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Humans, being backward, are still unable to speak one common language.

Until this human aspiration is attained, which seems impossible, the expression of joy and sorrow, of what is good and bad, beautiful and ugly, comfortable and miserable, mortal and eternal, love and hatred, the description of colours, sentiments, tastes and moods – all will be expressed according to the language each person speaks spontaneously. Behaviour itself will result from the reaction produced by the feeling that the language creates in the speaker’s mind.

Sport, Horsemanship And The Stage

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Sport is either private or public.

The first type of sport concerns the individuals themselves.
